Smells like oil??
I just bought my car brand new a couple months ago. I changed the oil once at 1k. I have an HKS Carbon/TI catback. Now every once in a while the inside of my car smells like burning oil. At first I though maybe there was a little bit that got on the engine but the oil change was about 500-600 miles ago and chances are, if that was the case, that smell would be gone by now.
A guy I know told me all turbo cars smell like that. Uhh anyone ever heard that before?

How long have you had your exhaust on? My Borla Cat-Back smelled a little funny for a couple of weeks after I put it on, but it's fine now. There's just usually some stuff to burn out of the exhaust pipes. Just a thought.
but im looking to fix this problem(if it is a problem)
